"Olivier is coming from a muscular injury and was out for 15 days before playing 15 minutes (for former club Arsenal) in the game against Swansea". He hailed Chelsea's hunger for silverware and called them the most trophy-laden English club over the past few years.

The 28-year-old Gabon striker, who scored 141 goals for Dortmund since moving there in 2013, signed a contract with the Gunners until 2021.

Asked about the striker's progress on Friday afternoon, manager Conte said: 'Alvaro is still out and I hope to be able to solve this situation.

Chelseacompleted the signing of Giroud earlier this week, on an 18-month deal for a fee in the region of £18m.

"I'm a fast player and I score goals too, like Henry a little bit", said Aubameyang.

Wenger clearly makes the point, that because of the freaky striker merry-go-round that occurred between Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Michy Batshuayi, and Giroud, he had little choice but to allow the 31-year-old to move to Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte insisted he remains the best man to lead the Londoners despite an alarming dip in form from the Premier League champions in his second season in charge.

"But the first reason is the sporting challenge, that has always been my first priority".

Chelsea had a lacklustre January, during which they drew three Premier League games 0-0 for the first time in their history, which highlighted the need for a new striker.

"I'm happy to be here in this great team", Aubameyang told the club's website.

Giroud is excited to work for Conte having watched his animated approach to matches on the touchlines.

"There will be two nice games against Barcelona. It will be very exciting and I'm looking forward to it".
